In 2014 an academic and practice partnership was established between Florida Atlantic University and Boca Raton Regional Hospital. A Project Team was formed to build an interprofessional collaborative education and practice model and the early assessment phase was funded by a Florida Atlantic University Christine E. Lynn Caring Research Award. This initial work laid the foundation for the team to apply in 2015 for a President's grant from the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation which has funded the project since July 2015. The grant officially ended in December 2016, however, the Project Team is still working on the sustainability phase. The project remains ongoing.
Original 2014 Practice & Academic Project Team from Boca Raton Regional Hospital (BRRH) and Florida Atlantic University (FAU) :
-
Charles Posternack-Chief Medical Officer BRRH
- Melissa Durbin-Chief Nursing Officer/VP BRRH
- Shelly Gonzales-Executive Director of Nursing BRRH
- Maureen Moore-Director of Case Management BRRH
- Gwen Collins-Executive Director of Pharmacy BRRH
- Terry Eggenberger-Assistant Professor of Nursing FAU
- Bernardo Obeso-Associate Professor of Medicine FAU
- Kathryn Keller-Professor of Nursing FAU
- Benjamin Bensadon-Clinical Psychologist FAU
- Ryan Perdzock- Internal Medicine Resident FAU
- Mathew Checketts- Internal Medicine Resident FAU
Presently the team has expanded. An updated list will be provided in the near future.
The Project Team is proud to announce that 86 project Champions have received TeamSTEPPS development, introduction to the Interprofessional Education Competencies (IPEC), and a report on the assessment findings on the Relational Coordination Survey. Additionally, the team has met face to face with staff by attending unit meetings on the 3 pilot floors--sharing the assessment results and obtaining feedback on interprofessioanl rounding. The hardwiring of these communication and team concepts is a part of the work plan objectives of the Macy's grant.
